Logistics

Proven experts in international brand strategy and global market development.

Essential requirements unique to export marketing that must be considered relate to required international documents, the means of payment, the requirements of tariff systems, and other impediments to the free flow of goods between independent sovereigns.   Sometimes the mechanics overwhelm the other aspects of foreign marketing, so their importance should not be minimized, but mechanical considerations must not take precedence over the basic functions of international marketing.

Assorted documents are necessary for every export shipment to satisfy global government regulations controlling exports and to meet the requirements for international commercial payment transactions.  The most frequently required documents are the export declaration, the consular invoice or certificate of origin, the bill of lading, the commercial invoice, and the insurance certificate.  In addition, such international documents as import licenses , export licenses, packing lists, and inspection certificates for agricultural products are often necessary.

The paperwork involved in successfully completing a global transaction is considered by many to be the greatest of all non-tariff international trade barriers.  Properly prepared documentation is critical.

The global marketing professionals at Summit Development Company are very experienced in international trade logistics.
